Description
In the words from the designer himself...this shirt is meant to "put a smile on your face, to liberate your soul, & enlighten your senses'. This retro 1000% cotton tee has a shrunken baby-tee fit & features a beautiful allover tie-dye wash with the predominant shades being blue, purple, & off-white. It was hand made in India in the 90s & is a great example of a designer, handmade casual t-shirt. It's a super easy piece to throw on with any ensemble for an instant pop of color. The original Paul M. Ropp labels are inside & the sizing is noted as "FREE SIZE", however it fits a modern day XS - S best & would be very snug on a M. About the designer: Paul Ropp is an eclectic artists & one of the main actors of the 60's movement. Paul's muse is Nature & the crazy, unpredictable yet deeply engulfing streets of Asia, India, & Bali in particular. Paul saw the beauty in the people, the music & the dancing that surrounded him during the 70's & walked away with a true vision to create clothes that are not only wearable but "magnificent heirloom treasures". Paul aims to encapsulate a rich biodiversity of culture & skill. Condition: Excellent unworn condition with sample tag still on.
